Ryzcek All-ACC

Dan Ryczek returns to man the
center position. A possible pre-season
pick at All-ACC, Ryczek has
had a year of varsity experience and
should mainstay the line. Four men
are battling for the two guard spots
- Tommy Thomas, Jim Shannon,
Paul Schrecker, and Tom Kennedy.
Thomas and Shannon both started
in varsity games last season and
would appear to have an edge on
the starting berths.

Rick Kotulak and Gary Saft
have both seen plenty of game experience
and should be ready to go
at the tackle slots, with a strong
challenge coming from Abby
Sallenger and Bob Burkley.

Co-captain Rick Moschel will
handle the split end duties and Bob
Bischoff is set to go at tight end. |

Jim Carrington and Bill Davis are
also talented receivers and will be
ready to step in.

Coach Ken Campbell sums up
his attack, "It is probable that we
may not be as explosive as last
year's offense, however, we should
have consistency in the running
game and also the ability to move
the ball via the air lanes."

The defensive unit is bolstered
with the return of seven starters.
Co-captain Bob Rannigan heads the
list of veterans at his safety post.
Also in the secondary are regulars
Andy Minton and Pete Schmidt.
Bill Lockwood, a letterman from
last year's squad may well find himself
a starter in the defensive backfield
as well. Dave Turner and Dave
Smith should challenge these men
for their positions.

The Cavaliers have perhaps the
best two defensive ends in the conference
with Tom Patton and Al
Sinesky, both of whom are solid
candidates for All-ACC posts. Backing
up these two veterans will be
Randy Lestyk and Al Ferrara.

The departure of Rick Brand
and Rick Constantine at the defensive
tackles leaves a looming
void in the line, but Jim Willits and
Bob Bressan should ably plug up
the hole.
